परन्तप O scorcher of enemies, सौम्य handsome one, गृध्रस्य bird's, विनाशे at his death, मत्कृते च for my sake, यथा as, सीताहरणजम् caused by the abduction of Sita, दुःखम् grief, तथाविधम् in that way, न not experienced.

English Commentary

O scorcher of enemies, O handsome Lakshmana the grief I experience due to Jatayu's death on my account is more intense than Sita's abduction.
